I like the Fallen soldier one

Thanks. I can't stop staring at his fingers, though... They're so square. I keep thinking that's one of the shots I'll get rid of whenever I organize my screenshots folder... I looked at it last night and realized I had nearly 600MB of screenshots. They really need to be sorted or something.

Misty mountains

"Far over the Misty Mountains rise..."



I have a couple of shots I can post later... Assuming my internet cooperates. I keep losing the connection. As usual.

Edit:
Two Trolls
Dusty Drake
Horse in the Snow
Fleshless Maw

Happy Halloween Guy Fawkes' Day Fourth of July Monday.

Happy Frickin' Monday.

[Finn Wolfshorn]

Fishies!

I love this! There are hundreds of action shots, portraits and landscapes on this thread, but only few pictures like this: mundane things seen in a new and interesting way. Nice.

RSQDW, I like the third shot very much. Very atmospheric, looks almost like an ancient picture postcard with its sepia tones.

Now for some more regular stuff.
Hist-Tongue, Argonian druid:
Spriggan meeting
Druid's mount
Eldergleam sapling
Night in the Underforge

Marilyn, Bosmeri vampire:
The girl and the dragon
(3DNPCs Lleyara and, um, I forgot the dragon's name. Taken back when Mari could still bear the sunlight.)
"This is where I'd expect to hear the theme from 2001."
Changed
First lesson
The Black Rider
Flemeth the Witch
Serana

Frostflow Lighthouse
The College and Skytemple Ruins (also some Horkers)
College and Masser

[Evil-i]

Hist-Tongue, Argonian druid:

Druid's mount

Love this photo. Was listening to this song when I opened the photo, and it fits freakishly well.

[Finn Wolfshorn]

^It actually does, in a weird kind of way. Like the song, thanks for the link!

Taking flight

Faithful companion

Smug-looking horse

I dare you to come closer

Footprints!

Thanks! It's things like those little fishies/bees/butterflies/etc that always make me impressed about the amount of detail that was done with this game.
Nice set of scenic photos you got there.

Chadonraz - Lol at the smug horse.


Some Dark Brotherhood spoilers if there's still players who haven't finished the questline

Shots:
Awakened
The Ritual Stone
The Atronach Stone
Black Talons
Through the Arches The lighter part is bugging me... I need to find that texture and darken it to match the rest of the ruins.

Kas'Lei:
In Helgen
As the Dragonborn I'm starting to wonder how many shots I have in that spot. (Edit: I looked. Probably 40 or more.)
Dragon Hunting
Mammoth Hunting
A Tale of Two Dragons
Not Quite Done
Through Fire
Feeling Assaulted Referencing the assaults from Deadly Dragons. It keeps giving me three dragon assaults every 24 hours. Kas'Lei must have bad luck or something because Deadly Dragons is set for one to three dragons every 24-72 hours.

[Mauin]

A whole lot of dragon fighting (because apparently they just can't leave Kas'Lei alone):
Snap
That One Ring
Mean Forest
Torn Wings

The Wolf

Interesting. That Wolf looks fluffier and less greasy than your standard Wolf. Almost Fox-like.

That would be because of this. I use that person's horse mod as well.

Some quick pics I've been taking, as I recently got back into Skyrim since I heard about the release of Perkus Maximus

http://imgur.com/a/r7csm

My modlist, in case anyone's curious. Use Mod Organizer if you don't, it's heaps better than anything else I've tried out.

[Finn Wolfshorn]

^That's some beautiful pictures! The panoramic landscapes are spectacular, but I think my personal favourites are the waterfall near Honningbrew Meadery as far as aesthetics go and the mammoth skeleton with the human(oid) skeleton inside for curiosity - I thought mammoths were supposed to be herbivores, so how did that end up in there?

[Mauin]

Now that I've got a fairly large collection... I should probably post these.

Kas'Lei:
Arctic Dragon
Icy Battle
The Green Blood
Sun Over Water
Night at Sea
The Underforge
Magma
The Fire
Battle in Eastmarch
Beast Form
Draugr
Snack
The Roar
Casualty 1
Casualties 2 and 3
Casualty 4
Butterfly Mountain
The Road
Ice Wolf
The Reach Bleh. I swear I have to use an ENB just to get decent AA. I mean... My Morrowind and Oblivion both have better AA than that. Granted, both are being enhanced through hardware. Skyrim, for some reason, won't allow that.

Vulom Staadnau:
Murder in the Inn
The Undead
Charge
The Ragged Flagon
Ritual


You can tell which character has been played more frequently.
And, in case anybody is wondering, this is the Werewolf mod I'm using for Kas'Lei: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/60804/?

[DikkeVetteVlinder]

I finally uploaded my recent screenies (turned out to be around 800 screenies) so here are a few I really like;
They would have been a lot better if I had known the console command to remove the junk onscreen back when I took most of these, but alas. At least I know for future screenies :')

Cicero selfie?
Silne Grey-Eye
Silne somewhere in a more snowy part of Skyrim
Icy mountains
Disastrous vulcano selfie?

Lydia and DRagonborn Eriseya
Eriseya being an infiltrant (spoiler)
I believe it's Rorikstead. Not sure.
Aurora Borealis
More Aurora Borealis because I couldn't decide which one I liked best

The Steps
Serion being emo
Dawnguard waterfalls
River
Far over the Misty Mountains, I guess

Serion in Thalmor clothes
Faras, nearly drowning the second time within a week
Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thime meaning business (spoiler.. maybe)
Mercer Frey (spoiler)
Faras, having a drink

I'll.. I'll stop now :')

[Finn Wolfshorn]

I believe it's Rorikstead. Not sure.

Riverwood, actually. No other merchant store has that unique curved sign over the door like the Riverwood Trader. (Yeah, I know that's a sign I've spent far too much time playing this game. *sigh*)

Anyway, pretty pictures and a nice cast of characters! Silne is beautiful, whereas Serion looks seriously badass on the Thalmor pic with that scar and warpaint combo. The Misty Mountains would have been an instant desktop without the crosshair. Keep 'em coming!

Ahh thanks! I always get those two mixed up somehow :')

And thank you : D
I'm so glad I now know how to remove the crosshair and such from my screen ^^

---------------------------------------------------------------

Edit:
A few more because there are so many I like o3o and I really want to share them with y'all.
I'll put them in a spoiler so they take up a little less space :')

I know, I know. The first step is admitting you have a problem.

How I envy not being able to take pictures such as these...

You could try the method of taking a photo of your tv screen. You can actually get some really good looking ones if you get the lighting right to eliminate glare, interference lines etc.

I guess I could give it a try sometime! I'm just looking forward to getting my PC sometime and joining this topic.

Back in the old days of tube-type TV sets, the best way to photograph a screen was with an SLR camera on a tripod, the aperture closed to the highest f-stop and a 1-second exposure on the shutter. The tight f-stop gave you depth-of-focus to keep all of the curved screen sharp, and the long shutter time meant the electron gun gave you a good 30 or so sweeps of the full screen to burn that image onto film.
